In the Feb. 8 episode, Jim Gaffigan of "My Boys" and other comedic ventures guest stars as a friend of Murray (Rhys Darby), the Conchords' manager.

And the Feb. 15 episode, in which Jemaine starts dating an Australian (what?!), was directed by Michel Gondry ("The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind").

Another cool (but brief) guest spot in an upcoming episode: Alan Dale ("Lost," "The O.C.," "Ugly Betty") is in a key scene in the Feb. 1 episode, in which Bret forms a gang called the "Tough Brets."

One other Conchords note: On Youtube, HBO posted some commercials for the pawn shop owned by Bret and Jemaine's friend Dave (Arj Barker). I've posted one below, the other commercials for the shop are here and here. Warning: If you watch all three, you might find yourself saying, "What you want, we got it!" at random times throughout the day.

And guess what? The entire Season 2 premiere of "Flight of the Conchords," which airs 9 p.m. Sundays on HBO, is available on YouTube as well. I've posted it below.

HBO's press release on the upcoming "Flight of the Conchords" episodes is below.

Bret (Bret McKenzie) organizes a gang to protect
himself from rappers he dissed in a song; Murray (Rhys Darby) and
Jemaine (Jemaine Clement) confront a group of Aussie bullies; Mel
(Kristen Schaal) paints a portrait Jemaine can't get rid of.

Written by James Bobin & Jemaine Clement & Bret McKenzie; directed by James Bobin.
